THE SCRIPT FET. WILL.I.AM.

HALL OF FAME

This song is about:* Not giving up on one's goals or dreams* Working hard, against odds in order to get where one wants to go* Achieving and finding greatness in oneself* Eventually reaching the goal* Being great in whatever you decide to do

Something has changed within me Something is not the same I'm through with playing by the rules Of someone else's game Too late for second-guessing Too late to go back to sleep It's time to trust my instincts Close my eyes and leap!

It's time to tryDefying gravity

GLEE

DEFYING GRAVITY

This song is about:

* Believing in oneself* Being brave enough to make the best choices in life* Risking big changes* Inspiring others to do the same* Leaving behind the old/past for the new/present and future

Do you ever feel already buried deep six feet under?Screams but no one seems to hear a thing Do you know that there's still a chance for you 'Cause there's a spark in you?

You just gotta ignite the light and let it shine Just own the night like the 4th of July

KATY PERRY

FIREWORKS

This song is about:

* Being what you can be despite the challenges* Letting your power shine* Knowing that low times will end

Skies are crying, I am watchingCatching tear drops in my handsOnly silence as it's endingLike we never had a chanceDo you have to make me feel likeThere's nothing left of me?

[Chorus:]You can take everything I haveYou can break everything I amLike I'm made of glassLike I'm made of paperGo on and try to tear me downI will be rising from the groundLike a skyscraperLike a skyscraper

This song is about:

* Having/finding strength* Fighting against negativity* Rising and getting up against odds, resistance, personal struggles, etc.

SKYSCRAPERDEMI LOVATO

Dark is the nightI can weather the stormNever say dieI've been down this road beforeI'll never quitI'll never lay down, mmSee I promised myself that I'd never let me down

I'll never give upNever give inNever let a ray of

doubt slip inAnd if I fallI'll never failI'll just get up and try again

Never lose hopeNever lose faithThere's much too much at stakeUpon myself I must dependI'm not looking for place or showI'm gonna win

BRIAN MC KNIGHT

WIN

This song is about:

* The importance of not giving up and rising again

even if you fall* Self-dependence and self-

reliance* Never give up; never give

in. And if you fall, you'll never fail. Just get up and try again!

• And when the night is cloudyThere is still a light that shines on meShine on until tomorrow, let it beI wake up to the sound of music,Mother Mary comes to meSpeaking words of wisdom, let it beYeah let it be, let it beLet it be, yeah let it beOh there will be an answer, let it beLet it be, let it beLet it be, yeah let it beOh there will be an answer, let it beLet it be, let it beAh let it be, yeah let it beWhisper words of wisdom, let it be

THE BEATLES

LET IT BE

This song is about:* Finding oneself in times of trouble and darkness* Spirituality* Words of wisdom* Finding answers* Having light and shining even in darkness* Sometimes you can't change the world, you can only change your reaction to it
